Bio Hazard Anyone?
- A homeless man was shot to death Monday afternoon at "Tent City," an encampment that lies on state-supported property in the South Loop, state police said.
The shooting happened about 4:45 p.m. at a "grassy embankment" in the 1000 block of South Desplaines Street, Illinois State Police said in a statement.
Now homeless "advocates" are worried the camp might be disbanded:
- Advocates for the homeless community are concerned that a planned street cleaning scheduled for next week at the site of a “Tent City” in the South Loop could lead to the shut down of the encampment, which lies on state-supported property.
Attorney Diane O’Connell, of the Chicago Coalition for the Homeless, said she fears that the street cleaning — which comes after a shooting on the property — could be used to force the homeless population out of the grassy embankment along the expressway near the 700 block of West Taylor.
Have the "advocates" been by the encampment lately? The Fire Department showed up the other day and took at the propane heaters after one exploded (click for larger version):
CFD was worried about sympathetic detonations of the other cylinders. But the big story that the Sun Times didn't even touch on was the complete lack of running water, zero sanitation facilities, overflowing buckets of human waste and a burgeoning rat population. If it was warmer, the Los Angeles typhus outbreak would be completely overshadowed by something resembling The Plague in the Dan Ryan encampment. The "street cleaning" isn't so much a Streets and Sanitation effort as it is going to be a decontamination operation of a bio-hazardous dump.
Who the Hell lets people camp out on the highway embankments?

Homeless and community as two words put together is just one of those things, those dichotomies, that come to pass when ever democrats run things.
Maybe it is time to stop voting for democrats, eh?
This is completely ridiculous. Vacuum up the homeless camp situated on the highway embankment. People going to/from work have to look at this nonsense. Clean it up.
The camp has been there or around for several years.
So much for the "No Pedestrians" signs at the highway entrances...
The Daley clan, this is the harvest of the inequality
of the vines they planted many moons ago.
Could you make it through a Chicago winter living
outside without propane?
Of course, damn near unlimited resources get
poured into fake 911 calls, especially the ones
that are part and parcel of lazy miscreants hell
bent on getting a fucking raise in salary.
Rahm is leaving very soon and so the homeless will be someone else's problem. Why would Rahm worry about some "bums". Bio-hazards -ahhh maybe this summer. Not my problem. I'm California Dreaming.
You know who's worrying. The top vote getters in the upcoming election. They're worried about what other messes Rahm has left for the new mayor. He or she has got to wonder and worry. After all, look at what Rahm is leaving behind for them to fix. An 8 year legacy of high crimes, mayhem, deceit, corruption (look at the City Counsel), increased taxes, racial tension and hiding the JVD shooting video. That's all front loaded too.
Just think, Rahm's legacy (gift that's keeps on giving) all started over a lousy wedding dress.
What about rich guys blowing themselves up with the Keurig
Dreamworks home cocktail bar?
Looks like we're headed back to the Brass Age: the rich are
so lazy they can't even pour a drink anymore. You rich, phony
ego-inflated assholes. The college years, the alleys, the basements.
Only fuzzy memories now. Been outside lately?
The Class Divide will only get worse once word
about the pampered Smollett gets around to the
homeless of Chicago. If you send slimeball TV
reporters to the camps and ask about the "Gini
Coefficient," not one inhabitant would ever have
a clue. But it's right here in Chicago, hiding
behind the law of large numbers.
Give them all one way tickets to the land of fruits and nuts. LA will welcome them with open arms.
Time for Ed to walk arm and arm on the Ryan again defending the deranged exway dwellers.
Where the hell did they get all of the tanks from? Improvise terrorist attack on the expressway by throwing propane tanks at cars could occurred.
I guess I know where the propane tank on my grill went. That Ohio State grad took it.
Will those propane tanks fit my BBQ grill?
Why not have each of those “advocates” take a homeless person home with them.
Use that spare room or let them crash on the couch.
Or we could use those closed CPS buildings as flop houses.
LA, Seattle, San Diego, vaious cities in FL are all homeless dumps.
All I can think of is it would be a lot easier to be homeless where it is warm in the winter. But that would require some work on your part to get there so just stay where you are and freeze. Besides there are plenty of bleeding harts here that will help you instead of letting you freeze.
Notice none of these activists, lawyers and left wingers never take a homeless person home? Can't have that on the North Shore or in your parents basement.
How many does that lovely lady want to take into her home?
Sounds just like the cta red line. Never sat in a seat when riding in one of those cattle cars, stood the whole time. A rolling biological laboratory.
It seems to me the victim had a Divy bike, my guess stolen and a generator, my guess stolen also. Good guy? NOT.
Only in ShitCago, why doesnt JB put them up in hotels?
What can we do?? I freaking hate that they place drive pass there everyday, doors lock and all !!
Catch Me If You Can
The usual cache display of illegal guns, drugs,
cash, weapons.
The police and the military like to spread everything
out. You show me yours, I'll show you mine.
Why bother to clean it up. In a week will be the same again. City should charter a big jet and send them to Hawaii ,San Francisco or LA. They all seem to embrace the homeless with much nicer weather. No one freezing to death in any of those cities.
not only has the City of Chicago, County of Cook and the State of Illinois our State, County, and local government have lost the expressway system to graffiti taggers, and now the homeless are setting up living quarters along the expressway system! Both look at your tax dollars going to use in other areas but graffiti AND homeless removal along our downtown expressway system!
Vote these bureaucrats out of elected office!
If those advocates really want to show they care they can take two tents each with occupants and bring them home. Lead by example.
Why don’t these advocates pull up a bus and take these good folks over to JB’s mansion in the Gold Coast. There’s no toilets but sounds like they’re used to using buckets anyway. J.B. can take another tax dedeuction for housing homeless people.

Shame on you, all you political big wigs with more
degrees than a thermometer. No vacant Sears stores
in the area? Even without heat, it's a bonus because
you have no wind chill. Construction port-a-potties
sitting clean & empty awaiting a tax deduction.
Like Trump said: I picked up the phone and called them.
OT
Smollett was making $125K/episode, not bad since he
was not a lead actor. Worked his way up from $50K/episode.
Not many people buying the "I need a raise angle."
(NOTE: before fiasco, no word on compensation dissatisfaction)
Also, Smollett dropped by the set of Empire to apologize to the
entire cast. But get this: He said "I swear to you I had NOTHING
to do with this."
1. Lie to traffic cop stop: gave false name
2. Lie to CPD, Chicago, and America: I was not involved
3. Lie to cast of Empire
(When will the Authorities, the general public, and his fans
say "ENOUGH!"?
The camp needs to be taken down once and for all. These dope addicts do not want shelters or work, just more freebies for the permanent victim class.
that stinking pile of shit will remain.
there are ballots to count. twice.
Yep.
Disease will threaten and kill more Chicagoans than the worst gang members.
We need a mass movement to counter ....
The Plague.
Just move them all to the lobby of the Duece. It’s not like that district can smell any worse. They’ll fit right in with the pet sized cockroach’s and speed up the process of coppers catching communicable deceases.
Those FF will be cooking with gas all summer.
If you ever travel to Seattle or Portland, you will see these tent cities everywhere along roads and highways and in public parks. You would think that this was a boy scout jamboree.
Three stooges..” eureka “! You don’t smell so good yourself”.
Where did you expect them to go after they took Maxwell street away from them.
"dichotomies", sorta like "Chicago Police" and "Intelligence Unit"
If people are that worried bring a person from the encampment home with them or better yet 2.
So much for the exchange program with the cylinders. How are these homeless people affording it? Buying new cylinders each time?
They are just camping.
Why be a Welcoming, Accepting Shithole Sanctuary City if you can’t emulate California’s (without the nice weather).
Back in the early parts of 2000 that was my Beat during the middle of Maxwell St gentrification.
The State was quick getting those panhandlers and the shacks, camps promptly removed whenever I called.
They just wanted PD there to keep things safe. UIC was good too at shagging the bums from there boundaries.
Streets and San also lended a hand, depending on the Ward at the time.
That was then and ShortShanks put the kibosh on all street evictions around 2006 for a re-election stunt (?), long time bums had nowhere to roost. They still don’t. Nothing but the all talk no action Democrat Elected and the selective intakes, members only, city sponsored, state funded shelters raking in big cash.
Criminally speaking, it’s too bad ISP having to deal with Chicago’s feral runoff.
I don’t expect JB Toilette to ever throw that jurisdictional authority back to CPD.
You fine Democratic folks and peoples in Chicago just keep giving everything away and taking in the human trash, just be sure to keep in in Crook County which I know you will as it is a part of your vote early and often contingent.

The comedic tragedy that is metropolitan liberal,
progressive democrat Alinskyite weasel-speak and
syntactically slippery word salad?
When the universally accepted/practiced/understood
has been hijacked/kidnapped and twisted into some
thing totally unrecognizable compared to it's
original form and intent?
Whereabouts unknown and no ransom note...
Their game, their rules, their narrative
so suspend your credulity and fall in line
or else when THEY get done running the table,
those who resist will be "re-educated."
Or doxxed into ruin.
Or the progressive wet dream of shoving all those
who aren't THEM onto fast freights to nowhere...
Collectivism, regardless of how it's packaged,
has been a 100+ year failure with a toll of
100+ Million lives.
But THEY say it can "work" in America because
America "has so much."
"Y'all rich people can pay for it."
Anyhoo...
"Homeless Community."
Y'all marinate and ruminate on that for a spell.
Doesn't your common sense thingy reflexively resist
your attempt to fit such an awkward to nonsensical
construct into your mental In Box?
But wait... There's more such self contradictory
donkey dung that has been spread around by the
metropolitan liberal progressive democrat.
Of course, you're an insensitive, mean and racist
some-kind-of-phobe if you exercise common sense,
due diligence, protect yourself and WATCH where you step.
Stinking, evil smelling stuff it is...
No?
State property, hopefully ISP will get stuck with this. Not CPD
Do you REALLY realize how SICK Smollett is?
Does he NOT realize that Emmett Till was born
in CHICAGO in 1941? His boyhood home is still
there.
To pull this crap in this city with the NOOSE Bullshit
is simply horrifying!
Of course, Smollett will claim ignorance. He's a
Millennial and that's outside his scope of HISTORY.
And this is Black History Month!
What do we have to do to honor, educate, honor these
people if they have no self-respect?
Remember when a homeless individual was referred to as a "Bum" !!
Driving through downtown on the 90-94 is getting to look like
the slums of many European towns with all of the graffiti
painted on the bridges, abutments and support walls.
I’m sure mayor Rhamicide thinks it’s the States responsibility to clean it up,
but it looks like crap and certainly doesn’t reflect Chicago’s
Values, or maybe it does.
You’d think the city could at least get some outhouses over there so these folks aren’t deficating out in public. Maybe the city could do more, for health reason’s, put a little more resources there in an effort to keep the area reasonably clean.
Be advised these camps are about to welcome all the new arrivals/voters to this sanctuary city...
Antibiotic resistant
heebie-jeebies, creeping cruds
and just plain garden variety
cankers, filth, scrofula and vermin.
The roaches have flies, the flies have
fleas and the fleas have ticks...
Ponder that when your District Commander/
Watch Commander allows THEM to use District
Station lobbies as a rest haven thus exposing
Policemen and their families to this ghastly shit.
They're saying fuck you, fuck your spouses
and fuck your kids.
This is tha' peoples/folkses "New Equality."
Right?

Remember...
Rats eat shit...
That's reason #1 why you bang people for not
picking up behind their dogs.
When rats can eat, rats do breed...
Just wait until spring.
They'll be all over everything down there.
The biggest cover up in american history ! THEM
Please, BoxChevy Phantom keep posting ! Your comments are awesome and always make my day!
The piss bums might want to make room for two more residents. R " Piss on you" Kelly & Jussie "Smellit.
Community Service. Make Jussie and the sex offender clean it up.
I think we just found a bunch of contestants for "Naked and Afraid"
In 2 it's by the order of the superintendent and the scum alderman to let the dirt bag bums in the station. Believe me the Cmdr's hands are tied . Feel free to help us by calling osha or the cpd for over crowding. Help them and make a call to osha or the board of health some nut job comes in at 1030pm and feels these sinking pos!
Encampments huh? Wait until this summer.

Yes, let's use our tax dollars to fund special outdoor shitters for the homeless. Great idea. Maybe you could volunteer to pay for them and empty and clean them. Sound good? Moron.
Juicy Fruit smollett will be living there soon!
Why be homeless in Chicago? I can think of several other states I'd rather be homeless, lol. Florida, Cali, AZ, New Mx or even here in Costa Rica.
Send them to mtGreenwood TOM dart will buy them pizza
This is how the new middle class will be living if democratic socialist policies are ever implemented.

They've all been offered relocation to a shelter and social services. They've all refused.
